Pacific Basin Expands Fleet with Acquisition of Two Japanese Ultramaxes from Tufton Oceanic
In a strategic move to enhance its fleet, Hong Kong-based company Pacific Basin has successfully acquired two ultramax vessels from Tufton Oceanic. This marks Pacific Basin’s inaugural purchase in 2023, with brokers disclosing a total investment of $34 million for the vessels, the Malmo (built in 2010) and Melbourne (built in 2011), both constructed at Oshima Shipbuilding. This transaction proves advantageous for Tufton Oceanic, which had previously acquired these vessels from Jinhui in 2016 for $28.5 million. According to VesselsValue, the $34 million price aligns well with the current market value of these bulk carriers.
